EUR/USD Price Analysis: Downside pressure should alleviate above 1.0700

Pablo Piovano FXStreet

- EUR/USD regains the smile and briefly surpasses the 1.0600 barrier.

- Once the 1.0700 region is cleared, the pair’s selling bias could alleviate somewhat.

EUR/USD picks up some buying interest and manages to surpass the key hurdle at 1.0600 the figure on Monday.

In case bulls push harder, the pair should meet the next hurdle at the monthly high of 1.0694 (October 24), which comes just ahead of the round level of 1.0700 and prior to the weekly peaks of 1.0736 (September 20) and 1.0767 (September 12).

In the meantime, while below the 200-day SMA at 1.0811, the pair’s outlook should remain negative.

GBP/USD flirts with 1.3500 as USD finds fresh demand

GBP/USD is flatlining near the 1.3500 level in Europe on Tuesday, facing some pressure from renewed US Dollar demand as a safe-haven amid surging Oil prices and inflationary concerns. The focus now remains on the Middle East headlines, with Wednesday's US CPI data the key event risk this week.

EUR/USD stays weak near 1.1550 amid US-Iran impasse

EUR/USD struggles to gain any meaningful traction and hovers near the 1.1550 area in the European session. Traders seem hesitant to place aggressive bets and opt to wait for further developments surrounding the Middle East crisis and this week's release of the latest US inflation figures.

Gold off two-month highs, back below $4,400 amid surging Oil prices

Gold retreats from its highest level since June 5 at $4,435, touched earlier this Tuesday, and slides back below the $4,400 mark in European trading. Surging Oil prices, amid the US-Iran impasse on talks to reopen the Strait of Hormuz, rekindled inflation concerns, lending support to the US DOllar at the expense of the non-yielding bullion.

The inflation narrative is still way more important than the employment story

Core bonds sold off yesterday with the belly of the curve slightly underperforming in the US while European curves showed more of a bear flattening. Daily changes on the US curve varied between +4.7 bps (2-yr) and +6.4 bps (7-yr).

9-3: Is the Federal Reserve’s vote tally Warsh's new forward guidance?

The rate did not move. Neither did the statement, and that’s the more interesting fact. Set the July 29 Federal Open Market Committee (FOMC) statement beside the one issued on June 17, and the two documents are identical apart from a single verb and a paragraph at the bottom naming three dissenters.
